Welcome Y’all!

We are an Alabama family with a passion for extraordinary adventures on an ordinary budget. In 2013, we ditched middle school to travel around the world. We spent less on our 5 month global adventure than many people spend on cars—and our memories won’t depreciate!

Although our “big trip” is over, we are still exploring. Our blog is full of trip ideas, budget tips, practical advice, and funny (and not-so-funny) stories about our adventures and misadventures across six continents.

We hope our blog inspires you to pursue your wildest dreams, no matter how unconventional they may be!

ADVERTISING DISCLOSURE

Very few of my links provide compensation to me if you purchase or book by “clicking through.” This blog was started as a hobby and not as a business; therefore, I’m not very savvy at monetizing this little hobby of mine.

If I love a place, I will tell you about it just as if I were telling my friends. If I don’t love something, I will tell you that too. Basically, I share because I care, not because I’m looking to make a buck. If the time comes when I do have a business relationship with a product or service that I’m linking to, keep these three things in mind: 1) it won’t cost you any additional money to purchase the product via my link, 2) I will indicate the links that do provide compensation to me, and 3) I will never provide a link to a product I don’t believe in.

PRIVACY NOTICE

Your email is safe with me! Why? Because 1) it is slimy business to sell email addresses, and 2) I wouldn’t even know HOW to do that if I wanted to. That is one of the many perks of reading the blog of a non-technical person.
